Not perfect,
not always easy.
And still, it is beautiful.
Tea. Flowers. People.
Life is rarely simple.
We long for freedom,
and still search for something to hold onto.
A cup of tea,
a few flowers,
a shared moment
sometimes enough
to soften, to focus,
to feel more like ourselves,
and more connected to others.
You can be here,
just as you are.
For what it says,
or how it feels
Between poetic stillness,
and attention through the senses
For resonance,and reflection
